Prolyte Launches Hybrid Coupler
Prolyte has developed a hybrid coupler the CCS6-610, a patented system, and an innovative product for the 30 and 40 series truss.
The first introduction of the CCS (conical coupling system) has radically changed the way truss can be used and assembled. It’s enormous success can be measured by the amount of copies now existing. The introduction of a hybrid conical coupling system is a step further ahead, say Prolyte.
Marc Hendriks, Prolyte’s engineering director, states: “Although it might seem very futuristic, for Prolyte it was a natural step, as we are constantly looking for way’s to improve our products. In this process we do not hesitate to use new materials or methods.”
The hybrid coupler is a combination of metal, encapsulated in synthetic material. The coupler can replace the current aluminium CCS6-600 coupler and lives up to the same specifications for strength and tolerances.
The advantage of the hybrid coupler is first of al its price, which will be less than the original coupler. In addition, it can be supplied in almost every colour possible, which makes easy recognition for rental companies possible. It is also possible to engrave logos on the coupler.
After its launch at the Prolight & Sound show in Frankfurt in April the hybrid coupler will undergo an extensive test programme, in which several Prolyte distributors and users will participate. After this trial period the coupler will be put into production.
